INFORMATION

FINDING GCF USING PRIME FACTORIZATION

In addition to the cake method, we can calculate the GCF of two numbers by using the prime factorizations of these numbers.

GCF(24, 18)

Once we find the prime factorization of the given numbers by using the factorization tree or the upside-down division method, we can mark the common prime factors. The product of the prime factors is equal to the GCF od the given numbers.
